And I thought that Kepler already rebutted that line of thought long ago,
The conservapedia does not inveigh agains the misapplication of

as being related to moral issues, but actively attempts to dispute the
scientific findings. My favorite line is the one about the sun being a
"perfect sphere", reminiscent of how astronomical objects were considered
before Galileo. The perfect sphere is obvisoulsy theologically the correct
shape.
The objection to set theory is how it quantifies infinites, which comes tooThe above would have been nice but for Clement's idiotic -- and ignorant --
close to the idea of an Infinite god. The other objection they seem to
have
is that math is invented by us as a means to help figure things out. They
want math and science to be absolutes so students will think everything is
absolute. But the fact that you have a logical system does not make it
absolute. It depends on the assumptions, and there will always be things
you can not prove. This sort of absolutism is precisely what the
"mathematically correct" people use as arguments, instead of looking at
what
the research shows. They use fundamentalist logic.
